Directions

1, Thread six grapes, alternating grape colors, onto each wooden skewer.
2, Place skewers into the freezer for 30 minutes, or until frozen.
3, Serve immediately.

Note: Skewers have sharp edges, so monitor younger children while eating, or take the grapes off the skewers for them. Grapes should be cut in half for children under 3 years old to prevent choking.

Children can rinse the grapes, freeze them, and thread the skewers.
